My Hockey Alpha #Chapter 140: Run

Nina

As I ran across the field toward the line of trees, my heart pounded in my chest. Meanwhile, Enzo’s last words echoed in my head.

“Run as fast as you can, and come back here safely, Nina Harper.”

Those words repeated over and over again in my mind, willing my legs to push me faster, willing my heart to pump harder. The line of trees rapidly approached, and finally, I was out of the open without being seen. I could still hear the sounds of people screaming on campus, but it had died down considerably already; there was no doubt in my mind that most of the students, including my friends, had been turned into rogues.

I cursed to myself, looking around wildly, and stepped out into the street to cross to the cafe where Tiffany said she would be that day, when I suddenly heard the sound of more screeching tires headed straight
